        It's really sad, but being injury prone, is probably a reason why TUJ may not become an AB.

        Conrad Smith was injury prone a lot early in his career. To try add some optimism to the discussion.

          TMO - that's clearly grounded.

          No it's not, you can't see it touch. Not conclusive, so correct call by procedure. Just the ref on wrong side. Totally is a try, but you can't see it touch the ground, that's the rules

          You can conclusively see that nothing can be between the ball and the ground. Or not if you're so shit a ref you get sacked back to first grade.

          Nope not how it works, they have to see it touch to overturn a no try call by the ref. You can say the rules are wrong but that was the procedure followed correctly, all cos ref was on wrong side.

          Man blues are playing like donkeys

          That's not what the protocol was when I did my level 2.

            Is Leckie not allowed to say “Cobber, it’s clearly grounded, you should overrule your on field decision”?

            Only if he sees it touch the grass. He didn't. The law may overturn logic, but logic must not overturn the law

              Since when has optimism been a prerequisite around here? I am fucked if that is the case!

                Blues are playing like muppets.

                Right into Landers hands.

                        This is pointing to the biggest choke in SR history, even against a team with a red!

                        Not that I think it will happen

                          FFS in all that waiting around they didn’t show footage of the penalty, so I had to scroll back to look. Coverage was better in the early 2000s.

                              Finals footy can make teams freeze and feel the pressure.

                                        Remember the old days when NZ teams would ruthlessly target injured players? Blues need to involve TUJ as much as possible
